If a company releases even a buggy driver, it still helps, because it provides information that the reimplementers need to know.

Ideally, of course, a good driver would be produced by effective two-way feedback between the experts on the hardware, and Linux kernel experts. One way is to get the company producing the product to hire an experienced Linux kernel developer to bridge the gaps, so good for Atheros.
